NUISANCE ~ DE our HEo'ED'
The police should make short work OF inc
borus race-t track which few notorious pool
sellers who formerly kept poolrooms in the
lower part Of the city propose to open III an
I'D town block tomorrow. The whole scheme
is not only an impudcnt attempt to evade the
provisions of the present law, but cheap and
nasty fraud. Only professional gamblers Oh
the lowest class arc interested in 1t, men VINO
have always been reluctant to go to the race
courses and take their chances openly In the
betting ring. but who have preferred in q
sneaking aud surreptitious way to entce
errand-boys and bootblacks to risk their small
earnings in pool-rooms carefully guarded from
the approach Of the police
No decent turfman will send horses to this
rrenosterous track with its six laps 10 the
mile. .and only scarecrows will drag their
dilapidated frames around it for the benefit
Of the booksellers. Mr.. Bcrgh's men should
combine with the police to stamp out this
swindling nuisance. The scheme was born
in dishonesty and nurtured in vice. 1t has not
the slightest legal excuse for existence. The
rolice will be derect in their duty if they
do not arrest promptly every man connected
with this limsy device to cover the picking
of pockets under the guisc OF pretended racing.

A STIEE RROOM.

Not only the Civil Service law but the
entire subject of Civil Service Reform was
ignored by the Pennsylvania Democratic Con-
yention. This is in the line Of party precc-
dents. but it goes beyond them. As We showed
the other day Democratic conventions have
steadily ignored the law from the
time OF its passage, but the plat
forms frequently contained some vague
illusions to Reform in general. which have
the merit, from the party point OF view, OF
doing no harm. The National Convention Of
1854 contained Just six words on the subject
This persistent hostility b the law is the more
significant, because the manner OF its enforce
mcnt has been one OF the most conspicuous
issues Of President Clcycand's Administration
The party conventions deserve some credit,
at least for making no professions Of friend
ship t. the law where they feel none.
Meantime Democratic testimony continues
Ia come in as TO the contrast between MI
Clcvcland's professions and his performances.
The clean sweep rea chcs even rs far as the
Territories. The appointment clerk in the
Post Office Department who has special charge
Of Dakota proudly says dakota has been

represent " little more than the actual increase
in the Offices. There are only forty insignfic ant
post Offices in the entire Territory which do
not seem to have been changed during this
Administration for various reasons
1t is not long since Senator Voorhees, dc
carcd that there was ''but one Presidential
post Office in Indiana where change has
not been made Mr.. Henry w. Grady admits
that they haven't much complaint to make

bonds which Ind bccn previously offered and not
